The Queen of Hearts (Audio Sample and Lyrics) The Queen of Hearts All on a summer's day; The Knave of Hearts And took them clean away. The King of Hearts And beat the Knave full sore The Knave of Hearts And vowed he'd steal no more. I'm the Queen of Hearts I did some tarts All on a summer's day; I'm the Knave of Hearts And I stole the tarts And I took them clean away. I'm the King of Hearts And I called for the tarts And I beat the Knave full sore I'm the Knave of Hearts And I brought back those tarts And I vowed I'll steal no more. (Queen: You better not, young man!) Knave: No more! All on a summer's day; The Knave of Hearts And took them clean away. The King of Hearts And beat the Knave full sore The Knave of Hearts he vowed he'd steal no more.

No more (Knave: Well I don't know about that, I mean, they were there for the taking, weren't they? I mean, I can't promise nothing I mean I'm just a knave, I don't know what I'm doing half of the time, I mean, if they're there and the opportunity arises. I just gonna take them away, aren't I? Queen: Off with his head! King: Off with his head! Words & Music: Traditional Arrangement: Ian J Watts Origin and background The origin of this nursery rhyme lies in Lewis G. Carroll's famous book Alice in Wonderland, which was first published in 1805. The Queen of Hearts is taken from a pack of cards and so are the other participants: The King of Hearts and The Knave of Hearts. Enjoy the story and the great musical arrangement by Rick Benbow.

 "<strong>Little Miss Muffet</strong>," "<strong>Hickory, Dickory, Dock</strong>," and "<strong>Baa, Baa, Sheep,</strong>" have been cherished by children for generations.

Their silliness, their rhyme and repetition make them fun for children to listen to and recite. Nursery rhymes are also a great tool to practice phonemic awareness and phonics skills.

If the egg drops off the spoon while a child is running or passing, the runner has to pick it up and start again.

The team that has all runners completing their laps first wins, but the object of the game is to have fun and laugh a lot, so all teams should have a chance to finish.</p> <p></p><div class="media media-element-container media-default"><img alt="Humpty Dumpty Nursery Rhyme Activity and Printable" title="Humpty Dumpty Nursery Rhyme Activity and Printable" height="520" width="520" class="media-element file-default" src="" /><div class="field field-name-field-folder field-type-taxonomy-term-reference field-label-above"><div class="field-label">Preschool Activities: </div><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><a href="/media-folders/media-root">Media Root</a></div></div></div></div> <h3 style="line-height: 20.0063px; color: blue;"><strong>Hey, Diddle, Diddle Nursery Rhyme Activities for Preschool and Kindergarten</strong></h3> <div><strong><span style="font-size: 13.008px; line-height: 1.538em;">Hey, Diddle, Diddle</

 some tarts, All on a summer’s day; The Knave of Hearts He stole those tarts, And took them clean away.

The King of Hearts Called for the tarts, And beat the knave full sore; The Knave of Hearts Brought back the tarts, And vowed he’d steal no more. “The Queen of Hearts” is a poem based on the characters found on playing cards, by an anonymous author, originally published with three lesser-known stanzas, “The King of Spades”, “The King of Clubs”, and “The Diamond King”, in the British publication The European Magazine, no. 434, in April 1782.However, Iona and Peter Opie have argued that there is evidence to suggest that these other stanzas were later additions to an older poem. There has been speculation about a model for the Queen of Hearts. In The Real Personage of Mother Goose, Katherine Elwes Thomas claims the Queen of Hearts was based on Elizabeth of Bohemia. Benham, in his book Playing Cards: History of the Pack and Explanations of its Many Secrets, notes that French playing cards from the mid-17th century have Judith from the Hebrew Bible as the Queen of Hearts. However, according to W.

Gurney Benham, a scholar who researched the history of playing cards: “The old nursery rhyme about the Knave of Hearts who stole the tarts and was beaten for so doing by the King, seems to be founded on nothing more than the fact that ‘hearts’ rhymes with ‘tarts’.” The Want to read the full article?
